1) Do you know if it's legal to open a trading platform where ONLY cryptos are traded? (BTC/LTC, BTC/ETH, ETH/LTC, etc.) Are there regulations?

2) What about a trading platform where cryptos and FIAT money are traded? (BTC/EUR, BTC/USD...)

You should search the applicable laws in the country where you are trying to open the platform. With the recent surge of the cryptocurrency prices and popularity, authorities are more strict in dealing with cryptocurrencies. You should try to ask a lawyer in your country and ask him if there are already regulations related to opening up a trading platform. Since you are opening up a business, there should be some regulations involved but it would depend then on the nature and scope of your business.

If there is fiat involved then the government would be more strict about that. You have to get permits and licenses to operate one. The best thing to do is ask the professional services of a lawyer and accountant too for establishing your business.

Since we now have many businesses engaged in offering trading platform for as many people as possible, then it can be possible to operate such a platform legally. Of course, you must make sure that the business has all the permits and licenses needed before you open the door for clients or members. There are now many countries which welcome such a business and even in USA you can open one though you have to go through the strict process to make sure that your operation is above board otherwise you can be subjected to prosecution. Next year, we should be expecting more and more cryptocurrency trading site to open for business and there are event hose who raise funds for the business via the ICO platform. I also understand that there are now decentralized trading platform which many prefers to avoid intervention from the operators. Make sure that you know what you are getting into and that you are offering a unique selling proposition (USP) to make the business a standout in the sea of your competitors. Good luck!

So I don't know what legal restrictions are applied on these exchanges in order to protect the financial interest of global traders.On the other hand, Fiat to Crypto exchanges has to adhere legal guideline and formalities of residing(or operating) country's law. Like In my country, such Exchanges has to verify the KYC submitted by users before letting them trade on the exchange.
